It might have been a waste of time but it is not wrong. gnome-python
and pyorbit will probably be removed from Testing this coming week.
We'd sure like to remove them from Unstable too (which will
automatically close this bug) but that will probably take several
months because there is a bunch of unmaintained dependencies and the
Debian process to remove "maintained" packages is probably as slow as
the process to remove Uploaders!
